100 Point Scale

Oh wait, I forgot....don't give a shit. You know what bothers me most about this topic, the fact that it is one of like five subjects that wine bloggers talk about. Jesus. Horse is dead already and you my friend, are looking a little blue in the face. And now there is some retarded online manifesto? So you go on and vow to never use points to buy or sell wine again...or what? They will remove your fake ass signature from their website, proclaim you a weenie and kick you out of their virtual fort?

Thomas,I look at a post like that, and the comments and I ask myself, "Now what is the definition of insanity again?". I don't ever want to stop writing but I sure as shit don't mind not being thought of as a wine blogger.

So sorry I missed this post initially. I was relaxing in my villa in Tuscany, having just completed my nightly ritual of giving my hair 10,000 strokes with a brush made from the bones of lesser critics.

I don't care about points. Giving consumers a frame of reference is nice, but it can just get too subjective to the critics' tastes. They can probably pick out "varietal correctness" and faults, but it's still too subjective.
